Thank you! It was such a good beginning that it was pretty easy to do. But I'm really pleased you liked it!

Terry is so deliciously dark and creepy.

Oh no ohhh nooo! You raised the stakes so beautifully! Terry is as creepy as I could have hoped, but I especially love the threat of never-ending rain! And Howard is perfect, at first awkwardly trying to discover what happened without giving himself away, and then admitting everything when backed into a corner. His defensive anger is so in-character and, imo, pretty relatable.

Some of my favorite lines:

“How was I meant to know it would actually work?” He burst out when they all stared at him angrily. “And even if I had, how could I have known something like this would happen?”

“Because this always happens when you're a tit!” Vince shouted.

Howard dimly thought there might be a point in there somewhere but there was no way he was ever going to admit it.

and...

Nothing happened for a moment and then there was a loud crack and puff of smoke and the barometer set alight.

“Is that err,” Howard said into the resulting silence. “Is that a good sign or…?”
